This pair of pants detects movement and let a computer know your every move.
With the huge leaps of advancement our technology has taken, many gadgets have emerged. But our clothing doesn’t want to get left behind. Maybe it is still early for Web-enabled clothes, but we can expect to see everything from our shirt to our underwear networked in the not too distant future.
An example of this kind of clothing is the one the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg has developed. It is a pair of pants "that detect movement and let a computer know your every move." These smart pants work via a loom that helps sew the wires and fabric together. Sensors embedded in the fabric measure the speed, rotation and flexibility of the pants with every movement. Wireless signals are sent from the pants to a computer to display the activity.
